DLNA media server

That is awesome stuff, thanks mcheng!!!!

So with DLNA, if my TV supports it, I will be able to stream liveTV directly to the TV? Is it possible to disable transcoding?

Also, how do you know the API to interact with Ceton? Do you have their SDK or something? I'd be interested in trying some coding (Delphi) myself Smile

The tv will probably support live tv without transcoding. Smile

DRI specs:

Anything specific that you would like to do with the ceton device? I can probably give you some easier examples. Would you want examples using http post calls?

Thanks again! Not sure what I'd like to do... Would be nice to be able to select a tuner and set channel, then stream it via http.

I'm also curious about the DLNA aspect you're going to implement... I need to learn more...

Regarding DRI, since the Ceton is cablecorp certified, that means they have to stick to the DRI spec?

I remember a few years ago, when I was using an ATSC tuner for OTA signals, there was a tiny app called WatchHDTV that was very small, was able to tune to channels, and record. I'd like to create something like that for the InfiniTV-4, but baby steps... Smile

Thanks again for all your help!

I wanted to share that I have fixed the channel change issue on the Rasberry pi using the tv: Confused

erver script.

The problem seems to be that the pi cannot stop the stream before trying to initiate the stream to be switched to. I changed the Overlay.py file in the resources/lib folder.

After the two self.Player.stop() statements in that file, ADD time.sleep(5) after it. Like below.

Code:
self.Player.stop()

time.sleep(5)

This basically gives the pi time to close the current stream before the next stream starts. Works like a charm for me!

Thanks so much mcheng89 for this BTW! Amazing piece of work here, it just keeps getting better.

Sorry for the lack of updates. I finished the dlna discovery part. Hoping to finish up the rest this weekend, and then start work on other changes.

Beggars can't be choosers. I appreciate the work you have done thus far!

Yeah, no rush... It's amazing how the opensource community keeps products alive, shocking the manufacturers appear to have no desire to keep their products alive...

Struggling here with an InfiniTV 4 and Echo, WMC is slow and very restricting...

Awesome, thanks for the update!

I did notice a small bug in this version, the silent launch script doesn't seem to work now.

Hey Guys i am having a an issue setting this up.

I have an hdhomerun prime setup, i have installed the latest tvserver 0.6.5 and vlc 2.1.2.

i installed the plex plugin but first thing i noticed is that there is only one channel per channel list. ex:menu "channel 1- 73" only shows channel 73.

The other issue i am having is when attempting to play the channel through plex i receive the error cannot load m3u8. I noticed in the HDHOMERUN status page that the tuner is enabling the requested channel.

I also tried with http://localhost:8888/play?channel=7&for...itrate=500 and to no avail.

The terminal displays:

VLC - Verify that stream has started
stopping video stream
failed video stream.

the log file logs-tv_remote.txt has:

Checking for video: 0
Stream is not playing

Its not a firewall issue since i have NPVR installed and i am able to watch tv from there.

Thank you for the help

Got it somewhat working.

Question has anyone been able to get this working with a roku?

I am very excited about this project

This all you need running to view outside of the house. You will need to know your external IP address and have the port you as using forwarded on your router to you media center pc.

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, I've extracted the zip and ran the tv.exe
I've configured the tuner settings to use the IP my card is which is 192.168.200.2 but it cant detect the card
I've allowed it through my firewall and I've turned off the firewall and it still doesn't detect it
Any advice?

Try 192.168.200.1, I'm pretty sure that will fix it.
